Talk:Prince Nikolaos of Greece and Denmark

Untitled
Should we add a line or two about his presence at the Slip Inn, when his cousin Frederik met Mary Donaldson? Seems like an important event.Prsgoddess187 16:54, 19 September 2005 (UTC)

Tatiana Blatnik's roots
Tatiana's precise birthdate is not given by her nor any communication from the greek RF. Her father's name is not confirmed (it is under some uncertainty).

I have been wondering why her father's name has been two different ones in information spread in media and internet. One version maintains that her father was Ladislav Blatnik, or Ladislav Vladimir Blatnik, who appeared in media already in the 1960s (long time before Tatiana's claimed birthyear) as a ready Venezuelan shoe industrialist. Another name presented somewhere is Petar/Peter Blatnik. These two names probably are not the same person.

Some media seems to have that Tatiana was left (half-)orphan at the age of six. That would mean her father died in about 1986. Additionally, it seems to be said her father died in some sort of accident. Shilkanni (talk) 14:53, 3 March 2010 (UTC)

about Ladislav Vladimir Blatnik (fl 1965): he was surely at a grandfather's age when Tatiana was born (in 1980). Of course, men in their sixties or so, still may sire children..... but it's not that usual.

Some media source has been presenting that in the 1960s, the Ladislav Blatnik who was industrialist in Venezuela, would have been from Austria. Presuming that the home region (Slovenia) presented for Ladislav elsewhere is correct, and knowing that Slovenia belonged to the Austrian empire up to c1919, but then became part of Yugoslavia, the 1965 Ladislav would been born in 1918 or earlier. Well, I find it pretty plausible that an industrialist in 1960s was at that time in his forties or older. A very young man hardly could have reached the business status of industrialist, mill owner, and particularly in a foreign country as immigrant there.

The 1960s business status imo necessitates that the Ladislav Blatnik was born in the 1920s at latest. But the additional mention of having been born in Austria, would time his birth to earlier, such as in the 1910s at latest.

If and when the 1960s-media-attested Ladislav Blatnik was Tatiana's father, in the birthyear (1980) of Tatiana, Ladislav would have been relatively old. If born in the 1910s, he was between 60 and 70 years of age. (and even if born in the 1920s, still nearing his sixty in 1980)

Out of hand, I would think that Ladislav is better suited to actually been Tatiana's paternal grandfather than her father. But, as these are unconfirmed, it's simply conjectural,.....

I read from some media an allegation that Tatiana would have told that her father was Ladislav, but I do not know whether this can be relied on. Shilkanni (talk) 20:55, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
